The word of God says that this is the day that the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it - Psalm 118:24. This scripture is so powerful and it is assuring us that the Lord as made another day for us to enjoy and that it is a new day, yesterday is gone but today is a new day, and this new day was made by the Lord. The Lord is saying to us that is a new day, new season and He is the one that will bless this day for us as we put our trust in Him to do something new in our lives in this new day.
The scripture says to us in Matthew 19:26
But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
With God all things are possible. This simply means that there is no situation that God cannot handle with His sovereign power. He is God Almighty - Revelation 1:8, the creator of the universe - Genesis 1 and the God that created man in his own image and likeness - Genesis 1: 26 - 27, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - Genesis 50:24, Everlasting Father - Isaiah 9:6 , the God that was and Is and Is to come - Revelation 1:8, the king of glory - Psalm 24: 8 - 10, the I am that I am - Exodus 3: 14.
There is indeed nothing that God cannot do as He is the true living God and with Him all thigs are possible. God as made this earth to be His footstool.
Isaiah 66: 1 - 2
This is what the Lord says,
“Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool.
Where, then, is a house that you could build for Me?
And where will My resting place be?
“For all these things My hand has made,
So all these things came into being [by and for Me],” declares the Lord.
The Lord made all things and this is why Jesus said to us that with Him all things are possible and He also said this in Jeremiah 32:27
“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is there anything too difficult for Me?”
This is God Almighty and since this earth is His footstool, it simply means that the eyes of God is upon all people, wherever we might be, He is watching us all, this is the reason why I am very careful to be pleasing to God, there is nothing hidden in His sight , I do not want Him to behold any sin in me or whatever will make His Spirit to be grieved.
Remember that he said this to us
In the amplified version
2 Chronicles 16:9
For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth so that He may support those whose heart is completely His.
In the contemporary version
The Lord is constantly watching everyone, and he gives strength to those who faithfully obey him.
With God all things are possible.
Exodus 14
The Red Sea Crossing
Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and camp before Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon; you shall camp before it by the sea. For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, ‘They are bewildered by the land; the wilderness has closed them in.’ Then I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, so that he will pursue them; and I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, that the Egyptians may know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.
Now it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people; and they said, “Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?” So he made ready his chariot and took his people with him. Also, he took six hundred choice chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt with captains over every one of them. And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went out with boldness. So the Egyptians pursued them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea beside Pi Hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
And when Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them. So they were very afraid, and the children of Israel cried out to the Lord. Then they said to Moses, “Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you so dealt with us, to bring us up out of Egypt? Is this not the word that we told you in Egypt, saying, ‘Let us alone that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than that we should die in the wilderness.”
